Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov stated readiness for new talks with the US and Ukraine, while EU sanctions discussions continue.
European Union discussions regarding sanctions against Russia have been extended for another week due to disagreements over delisting Russian billionaire Alisher Usmanov. While Slovakia and France reportedly support his removal from the sanctions list, 25 other member states oppose the move. Concurrently, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov stated Russia's readiness for a new round of trilateral talks with the United States and Ukraine, asserting that Russia "has something to say" in negotiations.
This situation highlights persistent divisions within the EU concerning the approach to Russian sanctions. Lavrov's comments suggest a potential shift or a renewed diplomatic push from Moscow, referencing past agreements that Russia believes were abandoned due to European influence on the US. The stalled sanctions talks and Lavrov's statements indicate ongoing diplomatic complexities surrounding the conflict in Ukraine.
